Thank you for your really inspiring video. I've learned a lot from it.
Greetings from Germany.
Please don't use red food coloring bad for birds and not needed. make your own sugar water 4 cups water to1 cup sugar.
I use a Canon Powershot SX60HS. It was R5 600 plus R500 for the 32GB card. I designed a chest mounted camera carrier that I made from a baby carrier and it works like a dream. I can't tell I'm carrying a camera.
awesome video
Nothing cheap about a $1200 lens. How about a 50mm $150 tripod wireless shutter release and a flash on a stand to stop action set at 1/15th of a sec. You can cover the camera with camo. set it close enough to get the shot you can always crop later. set the flash on a stand slave it from your camera. You have to at least have a camera.
Here is some inexpensive thing to help.

Tele converters tend to soften images. But yes they will extend your reach. My favorite combo 7d mark ii paired with the canon 100mm-400mm mark ii without teleconverter. With the 1.6 crop factor it works perfect.
Great job with the video and explaining the process of taking backyard and roadside pictures of birds. Thanks for educating us.
Very useful and informative video, thank you.
Loved your video.
In Florida if I created a pond a gator would move in. Good video. Never thought of building a habitat.
Thank you for sharing your techniques
Excellent video
i don't know how to use photoshop and also I don't believe that one should use it. If you want to show your skill it has to be natural
Hi, I have been shooting this peacock repeatedly and somehow it always comes out with motion blurr….how can I do this , whilst the bird has all its feathers on display and give its best sharpness. I have taken hundreds of photos and still havent found the right one that I want to use for my canvas print due to slight "focus problem"
I would dispute the comment that you can't walk more than 200yds with a 600mm f4.
I have been out all day with my 600mm f4 on a fluid Vinten head on a Manfrotto and Ive walked for miles and Im 59 yrs old ….but I am reasonably fit.
When you carry one of these lenses for a long time its like a gym work out and the more you lift it the stronger you get.
Thank you!
good
love your last clip of hummingbird. wonderful !
